Hello, i am using Windows 10 and qbt 4.0.4 and i think i was talking about this feature already, but can not find it.
ISSUE:
I have ~600 torrents now and some have outdated trackers/not working or ones with old PID (user identification numbers on private trackers that are part of announce url) in its URL.
I tried to use PSPad Windows software to bulk replace old PIDs by new ones in all files inside C:\Users\MyUserName\AppData\Local\qBittorrent\BT_backup
But qbt ended up showing around 300 torrents less than before i exited qbittorrent before doing the replace. So i quit qbt again and restored backup of that folder and after start torrents was back, but i am still there with redundant not working trackers & outdated announce PIDs. So i am asking here if you know any hack to fix it, to replace old announce URL PIDs..
Also this is an idea to create NEW FEATURE - tracker manager:
And allow sorting trackers so i can select worst ones and bulk remove them from all torrents that have example minimum 2 other trackers so i do not end up tracker less on some torrents.
Thank You

I'd also like such a feature. I sometimes add a large list of trackers for various torrents that have very low traffic.
List that I use is normally from https://github.com/ngosang/trackerslist

"Is this something you wish for? It's standard behavior in every program. If you select more than one item and add new trackers to them all items should get the new trackers. If you can select more than one item an this option is visible then it should work too or else it's a bug. I was on my way to report this as a new bug when i saw this. So please fix this."
